Hi.
use set client_encoding=''SJIS be the same to export PGCLIENTENCODING=SJIS. But can not export the data to csv file corecttly without errror, just because the character which is not SJIS encoding.
Um, Please show the information on your database of 7.3.
ex) postgres=# \l List of databases Name | Owner | Encoding -----------+----------+---------- postgres | postgres | UTF8 template0 | postgres | UTF8 template1 | postgres | UTF8 (3 rows) Probably, your database is SQL_ASCII ?
